Try putting them in paper towels, and soak them. then you spray it until the sprout shows.. shouldn't be more than 1 - 2 days until it shows.. depends on what you are trying to grow... Also, you should keep them warm!:)

yes, temp is VERY important for germination / seedlings

i place them between 2 wet paper towels inside a sealed tupperware container, leave the container on top of the tv or in another warm place :thumbsup: always crack in less than 48hours

i placed mine on 2 damp paper towels , and pit 2 more damp paper towels over them, and place the towels in a bowl and covered the bowl with saran wrap, to keep the moisture in, then laid the bowl on a heating pad on low. they cracked in 24hrs.

germination can take 1 day to 2 weeks, depends. no lights are needed until they sprout. so save some electricity money

no way, if done properly, germination shouldn't take more than a couple days tops

keep em moist and warm and you'll have sprouts before ya know it

i dunno.. i havent read the guides on this site

leaving the tupperware out on the open at room temp it has taken as long as 5 days for me, but when keeping it warm it has always been less than 48 hours

I always just put them into a cup of water near a heat register. I cover the top so NO light gets to them and leave em' for 48 hours. Usually I get about 90% germ with this method. GOOD LUCK!!!! :thumbsup:

Just try putting them in damp TP!:)

Squirt it with water 1 - 2 times a day, I have waited up to 5 - 6 days once.. Those seeds weren't good.. So, The seeds I use for my current grow, germinated for 2 days, and I put
them in the soil... They have sprouted now..!:D

And I used the TP method!:)

Good luck!:)

set them in a bowl with 2 damp papertowels on the bottom and 2 on top , over with saran wrap place on a heating pad in a dark area. i tried all those other methods and this is the only one that worked for me.dont let the paper towels dry out keep them moist. the moisture will make them crack.
